Living Next Door To Alice Tab

by Smokie



Sally called when she got the word.
                                               
 She said:"I suppose you´ve heard   about Alice".
        
Well, I rushed to the window, well I looked outside,
                                     
 I could hardly believe my eyes, 
                                                             
as a big limousine pulled slowly into Alice´s drive.


REFRAIN:
  
I don´t know why she´s leaving or where she´s gonna go
      
but I guess she´s got her reasons but I just don´t want to know.
                                                            
´Cos for twenty-four years I´ve been living next door to Alice.

Twenty-four years just waiting for the chance
   
to tell her how I feel and maybe get a second glance,
                                                      
now I´ve got to get used to not living next door to Alice.


                                     
We grew up together, two kids in the park.
                                                     
 We carved our initials deep in the bark,  me and Alice.
        
Now she walks through the door with her head held high,

 just for a second I caught her eyes.
                                                 
A big limousine pulled slowly out of Alice´s drive.

(slow down)
                                                 
Now I´ve got to get used to not living next door to Alice.
